Looking for some feedback on my school list
cGPA and sGPA: ~3.9 for both
MCAT score(s) and breakdown: 518 (128/128/132/130), took once
State of residence or country of citizenship (if non-US): CA
Ethnicity and/or race: ORM
Undergraduate institution or category: UC
Research/lab
Relevant honors or awards
deans list every quarter? summa cum laude? Is this even worth mentioning?
Current school list, I'm open to both removing and adding schools. My goal is around 15 - 20 schools

Research/lab
- Multiple Sclerosis research with 1 poster (400 hours)
- completed assays as well as surgeries on mice
- inventory and weaning of mice every week
- Simulation technician intern (1400 hours)
- organized set up and take down of nursing and medical student lab stations every summer since 2017
- occasionally helped teach BLS and other stations such as intubation, so might need to break this up
- definitely a "most meaningful experience" because it was one of my first leadership positions where I learned to work as a team and also my first introduction to the medical field
- Community kitchen for in-patients, out-patients and family (100 hours + ongoing hours)
- cooked, baked, and drove to deliver meals for people in the hospital and at their homes
- Endocrinology clinic (210 hours)
- completed patient intake and vitals for patients in both English and Korean
- Home-visit Phlebotomist (520 hours)
- Caregiver at memory-care home for patients with early to late stage dementia (150 hours + ongoing hours)
- in charge of feeding, toileting, grooming, and helping give meds to designated residents
- also a "most meaningful experience" because I see the limitations in terms of care I can provide patients
- Adult Literacy tutor at the library (100 hours)
- MS1 procedures course (75 hours)
- lead and taught a station for an MS1 lab
- Tutored Korean speaking students (350 hours)
- In-person shadowing endocrinology and geriatric medicine (40 hours)
- Piano and Flute
- been playing since elementary school, continued all through hs and college, recently been playing at the carehome I work at for residents
- both an outlet for stress and also something I enjoy playing for friend's and family member's weddings
